"but the one man he could always count on was Pat Quinn. Early on, Quinn would stop by a couple of times a week to visit, and when Odjick travelled back east to be with his family, his old coach was on the phone, urging him to listen to the doctors and take care of himself because he was getting better.

Stick with the program, Quinn would tell him, his coach till the end.

“He was a special person,” Odjick says. “He not only made me a better hockey player, he made me a better person. He’ll have an impact on me my whole life.”

Once, Quinn went the better part of 10 days without visiting, and Odjick thought he must have been out of town. He later learned Quinn was in the hospital himself, but he never once mentioned his illness to his former player. In fact, he left strict instructions that Odjick wasn’t to be told about his cancer.

“He never mentioned anything about being sick,” Odjick says, shaking his head. “He went so quick. It was a shock.”

Pat Quinn was ONE special man! Gino and Ron are warriors that sustain the Canuck tradition of being a great organization to play for.Congratulations Ron!
